DareDevil #119

Written by Ed Brubaker and Drawn by Micheal Lark & Stefeno Gaudiano, this is the penultimate issue of Brubaker's run on the series.

This is the most recent comics I have posted yet (It is dated Aug 2009, though I can't believe it is that old! Seems as if Mr. Brubaker finished his run just a few weeks ago...)

Regardless, if you haven't read DareDevil in a while, you've been missing out. Ever Since Bendis took over the title about 10 years ago, this title has been an amazing read. And the hand off to Brubaker was pretty damn flawless. (I won't go into details here, but I was shocked at how Bendis left the character and impressed with how Brubaker picked up the story and continued it)

This issue has the Kingpin back in New York and attempting to regain his lost power. He and Lady Bullseye (Who is a better character then the name would suggest) are at each other's throats on the cover there, but it is Matt Murdock that is on bit of a rampage. Add in his business partner Foggy Nelson, his former employee Dakota North (with whom he has just had an affair) and the Owl (Yes, the Owl) and you've got yourself one hell of a drama going on.

$1.00 will get you this issue, but if you can find the rest of the run I highly recommend it.
